    Pointless Cut Scenes

    I understand the desire behind some CS's that are in the game but some are just wasting our time. Like the chocobo one to outside of the city or the lift one. Not only do these CS's delay us some of them crash our game like the one in Uldah. Please just remove these CS's, we don't need to see ourselves walk onto a lift then walk off a lift.

    I like them personally, but they do get a bit annoying after seeing them for the xteenth time.

    There is an option to skip them though.

    I always skip them but sometimes it crashes the game so it really bothers me. It would be nice to have a option to allow us to toggle these types of CS's on/off so it auto skips for people.

    They are there for the people who enjoy them and can be skipped for the people that don't.

    There has to be better things for you to complain about.

    Scraping at the bottom of the barrel much?

    Inb4 someone misreads and suggests toggle in the ffxiv config.

    EDIT: Damn, someone beat me.

    they are, but everyone gets sick of them pretty fast. Its nice to see the first time but gets old after that. It was more his point that it crashes his system.

    Once you actually get your Chocobo, you never have to watch that cut scene again.
    As for the Elevator, Airship, and the like cut scenes, those are often used to mask parts of loading screens (sort of like the elevators in Metroid Prime). However as some of them do crash the game for some people, a toggle shouldn't be out of the question.

    I taught we were past the "game crashes a lot" phase.

    I like them, sometimes I watch them, sometimes I don't. We have the option to skip them, so it's not really necessary to completely remove them.

    For me, it's just a matter of time. If I have time to watch them, I do, because I try to see if there is something interesting I missed or I just enjoy watching it again. If I don't have time I skip it. I think it's a bad idea to take them out and sort of a slap in the face to the developers to ask them to take out stuff like this constantly in these threads.

    As other people said, the Cutscenes can be skipped, it takes literally a second to do so and some people enjoy a few of them.

    If your problem is that they crash your client, then perhaps you should suggest that SE improves the overall stability of the game? (something they have been doing since alpha, by the way.)

    Another valid suggestion could be having some sort of auto-cs-skip option.

    But removing them because some people don't want a one second delay caused by skipping them? Hell No.
